MEN WHO WIN.
Eve Hundred Dollars Thrown Away
His Aim Was Success

A good healthy body is almost sure to be
found associated with a good conscience.
a close student of human nature is rarely
willing to place large matters of trust in the
hands of another until he has seen the one
whom he is to trust. He looks for the fresh
health and vigor, the honest, frank counte-
nance and manly form, and in fact all thati is
attractive in men. He doubts the d~yspeptic
with sallow skin, drawn out features, the
evident weak and irritable nature. He feels
as Shakespeare makes Julius Caesar say:
1 me have men about me that are fat;
Sleek headed men, and such as sleep o'nightg;
Yon Cassius hath q lean and hungry look;
he thinks too much; such men are dan gerous!'
He does not doubt the honesty of the poor
unfortunate, but fears disease of the body
will affect the mind, bring misfortune upon
the individual, and loss to himself.
1t may be injustice to the weak, but if the
man has not the mental strength, or if he is
wrapped up in his misery, he cannot take in
the situation of the world, does not see that
ideas are broadening, and that isms and
teachings are advancing! How can a en-
ployer hope for success from such a man?
The ~dyspeptic look, the wax-like complexion
and sallow features show disease. The far
seeing man notes all these signs, and knows
that the great light of man, the brain, is af-
feeted, or will be. at no distant day.
He discards the poor victim of disease who

at last he takes to his sick bed. He seeks
medical aid. Lacking the broad ideas of the
successful man CT tine world, he tries the
same medical treatment that he has tried
many times before. The same bigoted coun-
sci is sought, the same drugs are administer
ed by the same old family friend tina treated
him months and years before, and his parents
before him, and in such a way he drags out
his miserable, unsuccessful existence.
Is he to blame? Why nots When he sees
daily, and hears from every side, proclama-
tions of a remedy known as Warmers safe
cure, which is becoming more popular daily,
hourly, while he is becoming weaker. =
J.. A. Gettys, insurance agent of Chillicothe,
Ohio, suffered for nearly three years with
dyspepsia in its worst forms, having periodi-
cal spells Of vertigo, fainting and chills. He
wrote over his own signature: II spent about
$500, had the best medical attendance, tried
all the remedies recommended without sue
cess, until | was induced to try Warner ssafe
cure. I used three bottles, nave gained
twenty pounds and feel like a new man"
Such a man as we have described, nine
times out of ten, unconsciously to himself or
to his physician, has a kidney disorder, which
is fast wasting his body and lite. He sees the
merits Of Warmers safe cure at every turn,
and hears it proclaimed from the house tops,
and yet he does not use it, because it is said
by his iliberal physician that it is not profess
sional, and not admitted by the code. Mean
while the man of tho world presses forward,
cares not a fig for this or that school; his aim
ward 80 the world beyond, believing and
trusting in man in this world, and to his faith
for the world beyond.
